problem in pushing metrics to statsd from .NET-CORE application

[psprasenjit903]

framework : dotnetcore 2.0, library used : Graphite.dll 1.3.0, System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager 4.5.0

I am trying to push application metrics to statsd using the following configuration:

app.config settings:
<configSections>
<section name="graphite" type="Graphite.Configuration.GraphiteConfiguration, Graphite" />
</configSections>
<graphite xmlns="http://github.com/peschuster/Graphite/Configuration">
<statsd address="10.32.2.9" port="8125" prefixKey="dapp.metrics" />
</graphite>

This is working fine from my local machine which is in windows 8.1.

Throwing the following exception when hosting it in azure windows server 2012:

System.InvalidOperationException: statsd pipe is not configured at Graphite.ChannelFactory.CreateChannel(String type, String target, Single sampling at Graphite.MetricsPipe.ReportCounter(String key, Int64 value, Single sampling at MyApplication.GraphiteMetricPublisher.PublishCount(String key)

In azure windows server 2016, no exception is getting thrown but metrics is also not pushed to statsd.

From all the above mentioned machines I am able to push data to statsd using bash script.
